Hello, I got the junkyard Turbo LS bug and picked up a 1983 Regal with a 6.0 litre truck engine project car. The body is in great shape but I need a hood. The truck intake and alternator is sitting above the hood line so I would like to add a cowl induction scoop but I can’t find any Regals...

Car had been running strong all summer and now started to set off knock alarm when just slightly getting into it on the street. I hooked up the powerlogger to capture what was going on and the spark advance is off the charts. Here is a snapshot. Anyone see this before?

It seems to be the spring of electrical gremlins. The original alternator gave out 3 weeks ago, I figured it was due as it still looked like the original one. I replaced it with a Napa 140 amp and drove the car a couple times a week with no problems 13.5 - 14 volts worked good. Today I notice...

I have had a Scanmaster on the car for 4 years and familiar the numbers however I went for a cruise tonight and just cruising along I am getting knock retard fluctuating between .1 and 0 ( point one not one degree) The engine runs and sounds the same, I don't here any ticking or valve train...

I have a 2005 Duramax 2500 HD 4x4 with a 160,000 miles on it. We just had our first snowfall here and when I popped her into 4HI it really feels like she is dragging. It is hard to explain but it's like the rear diff is a different ratio compared to the front diff. The steering is darty and...

I got out to the track Friday night and the best run was a 12.14 . Time slip and power logger file is attached. I am manually shifting the 2-3 shift. Does 109 MPH sound right? I thought with a TE 44 and the 212/212 cam it would MPH higher. Converter is commanded to lock at 85MPH in the 6.1 chip...

I was having trouble keeping the up pipe connected as I turned up the boost, even after replacing the hose and adding constant torque clamps. After blowing it off mid track and having to do the coast of shame I read the various threads on the topic and figured I would give this a try. So far so...

I just figured out what I have been doing. I am reading the posts on my ipad and as I scroll through the post my fat fingers are hitting the rating icons. I just looked at the ratings I have given and there are 2 pages that I have given out that I was unaware of. Thank you to 750 HPV6 for...

I was sorting through some boxes in the storage room last night and came across this magazine and article on the Buick T Type I thought some of you may be interested. Enjoy!

Looking for some help with my power logger. It worked fine before and now all of a sudden once I save a file it will not connect again unless I close it down and re-open the application. It gives me a "Device COM7 open error" The PLC communication set up is set to automatic, I can see in...

Thinking of running a race chip just for the track with some leaded 108 octane race fuel. I will be tuning with a power logger and aem wideband. Will the lead kill the sensor quickly or can I expect to get 12+ runs over the weekend. My SMC kit's pressure is starting to fall off and an Alky...

Hoping to find a Bailey 2 step, anyone upgrade to the TR6 and want to sell their 2 step? Thanks

Had a chance to get to the track today and log a few runs, could you take a look at this power logger file and give me some input. I am really disappointed in a 12.87 at 104 mph. The 60' was 1.86 off the foot brake. Looking at the RPM am I even getting in the powerband of this cam? Thanks

I just purchased a power logger and I can't get the laptop to recognize the USB connection' it does not give the alarm when it sees a device plugged in and does not show up in the device manager. The laptop will recognize other USB devices at the same time and does not matter what port I try. I...

Chasing a no start, car was running fine parked for a few hours and now no start. When I was checking for spark and making sure the plug boots were on the coil towers tight I noticed the coil for #6 and #3 was very hot to the touch. I split the module and coil pack and tested the coil inputs...

Does anyone have any video of this car running? Nick, Dennis, Lyle, the two crazy canucks that were with me just put a deposit on it. It was fun having lunch with you guys, I hope to talk to you guys soon, Lloyd.

Pulled the up pipe off the throttle body today and the throttle blade and throat have a heavy layer of black soot. The engine has about 500 miles on a fresh rebuild. The deposit isn't oily and will only wipe off with carb cleaner. I have recently been chasing a cold start issue and had pulled...

What is a good site or publication to look for a good project car in the Phoenix area. Now that I have my T Type back on the road I have a few buddies who have been bitten by the bug and are looking for a project car. Of course it has to be different than mine and based on the confused looks...

Dave Husek is a pleasure to deal with and went out of his way to help me. I live in the Great White North ( Edmonton, Ab,Canada) and contacted him about building my transmission. He was patient and answered all my newbie questions. He sourced a core for me saving me the cost of freight and the...
